Marine Valves

Marine valve have DIN,JIS,CB,GB Standards. Marine Butterfly valve Butterfly valve is a simple structure control valve can be used for low pressure pipeline medium switch control butterfly valve is closed parts for the disc, around the valve axis of rotation to achieve valve opening and closing Working principle Butterfly board driven by the stem, if turn 90 degrees, can complete a opening and closing. Change the deflection angle of butterfly plate, can control the flow of medium. Working condition and medium: butterfly valve used in furnace, gas, natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, city gas, hot and cold air, metallurgical and chemical industry and environment-friendly power generation, building to drainage engineering system transport all kinds of corrosive and non corrosive fluid pipe for regulating and truncated medium flow. Functional use: Valve opening and closing parts is a round disc, in the valve body around its own axis rotation, so as to achieve the purpose o...

Mooring Rope

Mooring rope according to the strength, elasticity, durability and operation to choose the most suitable materials. That large ships use wire ropes, and in the small and medium-sized ships to give priority to the use of synthetic fiber rope. All the mooring line as far as possible to choose the same size and material .Multiple strands mooring rope used to tie ships. Requires the tensile strength, impact resistance, abrasion resistance, flexibility, light. In the past commonly used steel wire rope, hemp or cotton rope; after the emergence of synthetic fiber, has been mostly used for nylon, polypropylene, polyvinyl alcohol, polyester and manufacture. Synthetic fiber rope in light specific gravity, high strength, impact resistance and good abrasion resistance outside, corrosion resistance, mildew resistance, resistance to insects and other advantages. Chemical fiber cable according to the processing structure is divided into With 3 strands rope, 6 strands rope, 8 strands rope, 12 stra...

Mooring winch - Load test

WHY LOAD TEST ? To check performance and condition of the mooring winches. Gear backlash measurement The gap (backlash) between the two gear tooth in contact (gear wheel and pinion) is measured in this test. For this purpose a solder wire is placed on a tooth on the pinion wheel (connected to the hydraulic motor) and the motor is turned. After one round, when the tooth of the pinion contacts that of the gear wheel the solder is flattened to a thickness corresponding to the gap between the two tooth. This thickness is measured using a vernier caliper. It is compared to the design specification. Load checking The winch is rated for a particular load according to design. This load is simulated using a weights attached to a wire rope and lifted vertically. The arrangement is shown in the figure. While considering the total load on the winch, we must also take the efficiency of the sheave, η. Considering there are three sheaves, load on the winch (F) and the total weight (...

What's the Rubber Fender ?

Rubber Fender is an elastic buffer device of rubber use of ships dock edge. Mainly used to slow the ship and dock impact, or between ships in dock impact, or mooring process impact, to prevent or eliminate damage to a ship or dock Usually the rubber fender according to the structure can be divided into two categories: solid rubber fender and floating type rubber fender. Solid rubber fender dock ship application long history and wide range of anti-collision equipment. Can be divided according to the rubber fender force to shear, rotation and compression type and so on; according to the fender structure, solid rubber fender can be classified as type D type, Cone type, drum type, fan-shaped, rectangular type, cylinder fender and so on. Solid rubber fender with high energy absorption and reaction force, and has low cost, long service life, easy installation and maintenance advantages, dock, dock installed more protective device. Floating type rubber fender is newer protecting ...

Marine Mooring Winch

Definition Machine to twist the rope.winch to maintain and twist the rope in tension, and can store the rope also called mooring winch. Winch or mooring winch, mainly used to twist the rope. Bow mooring machinery is performed by windlass drum, some large ship at the bow designed special mooring winch; middle ship rope by cargo winch drum twist, some large ships also dedicated mooring winch; on the stern deck is another mooring winch or mooring capstan. Winch has vertical or horizontal. Vertical winch called capstan. According to the power different divided steam winch, electric winch and hydraulic winch. Classification of winch According to the power source, electric winch , hydraulic winch, and steam winch. According to the axial direction of drum, can be divided into horizontal and vertical cable winch. Horizontal marine winch General horizontal winch drum is driven by the motor after drive operation, the deck occupies a larger area. Vertical marine winch Vertical winch, also k...

How to Verify Windlass Efficiency

This test is carried out in front of the  Classification Surveyor.   As per classification rules the Windlass  must be able to raise the anchor from  82.5 mtr depth to 27.5 mtr depth ( two cable lengths ) at a mean speed  of 9 mtr/minute. If the depth of water  is inadequate, a simulated condition  is considered.

Marine Windlass

Windlass is ship machinery to retractable anchor and chain on board. Using steam engine, electric motor and hydraulic motor as power. Usually installed on the first deck of ship. The trend of its development is to achieve operation, anchoring, mooring and automatic mooring for a unit. According to the driving form can be divided into: manual, electric, hydraulic. Windlass mainly by base, bracket, chain wheel, brakes, sprocket, gear box, control system (manual windlasses except ) and other components, electric windlass motor and hydraulic windlass with hydraulic pump station. The main specifications of windlass include diameter of anchor chain, anchor nominal speed, rated load, support load, speed, power system voltage etc. Windlass in ship installation to ensure the chain and sprocket wrap angle is 117 - 120 degrees. Anchor windlass requirements The windlass is machinery for anchoring and anchor drop, also used as mooring. There are some requirements for windlass: 1) the anchor shou...

Boiler Water Parameters

Hydrazine is a colourless liquid which is highly soluble in water.  It is a powerful reducing agent and will reduce oxygen to form nitrogen  and water, with no resulting dissolved solids. At high temperatures and  pressures, the reaction between hydrazine and dissolved oxygen also  forms very small quantities of ammonia. This ammonia carries over into  the steam and helps to reduce the acidity of the resulting condensate as  it is returned to the feedwater system. Hydrazine also reacts with soft  haematite layers on the boiler tubes, forming a hard magnetite layer  which then protects the tubes from further corrosion. The alkalinity of water is a measurement of its buffering capacity.  Alkalinity of natural waters is typically a combination of bicarbonate,  carbonate, and hydroxide ions. Sewage and wastewaters usually exhibit  higher alkalinities due to the presence of silicates and phosphates.  Alkalinity inhibits corr...

Centrifugal Pump

A centrifugal pump converts rotational energy, from a motor, to energy in a moving fluid. A portion of the energy goes into kinetic energy of the fluid. Fluid enters axially through eye of the casing, is caught up in the impeller blades, and is whirled tangentially and radially outward until it leaves through all circumferential parts of the impeller into the diffuser part of the casing. The fluid gains both velocity and pressure while passing through the impeller. The doughnut-shaped diffuser or scroll section of the casing decelerates the flow and further increase the pressure. Fluid under pressure now leaves the impeller producing a drop in pressure behind it at the eye of the impeller. This causes fluid from the suction pipe to flow into pump due to atmospheric pressure and subsequently that fluid also gets discharged. This way fluid in the pump acts like a piston moving outwards and causing drop in the pressure behind.  THAT IS WHY A CENTRIFUGAL PUMP CAN BE STARTED W...
